Service was wonderful. There were a few hitches with the dinner party we had arranged, but it was addressed immediately. We were more than adequately compensated with a private room and various other upgrades. A most enjoyable post Christmas weekend.

Disappointing
The hotel was fine, nothing spectacular, I found the room was disappointing, no tea or coffee. There was a kettle and a coffee machine, but nothing to compliment it. Odd layout of bathroom. Card key system left a lot to be desired to get in, out and around the hotel.
